Garmin Express overwriting case sensitive properties

Properties with the same id in properties.xml that start with a lowercase letter or an uppercase letter, e.g. ("m"/"M", "x"/"X") are overwritten by Garmin Express with the value of the uppercase letter property as soon as the settings are opened via Express.
This happens the first time the settings are opened and is overwritten with the new value of the property of the capital letter id as soon as the settings are saved.

This only happens in Garmin Express, everything works fine with the ConnectIQ app.
Garmin Express Version 7.20.3.0
OS: Windows 11
SDK 7.1.1 (problems also appears on 6.4.2)
Tested with the following device: Epix Pro 47mm (16.22), Instinct 2 Solar (15.08)

  • Here is a video of the situation.
    I would have liked to test your data field, but it is displayed as a "development data field" and I cannot change any settings. I have tried reinstalling, rebooting etc., but changing the settings only works via the ConnectIQ app.
    Interestingly, this is also the case with all my beta apps as shown in the video.

    I have seen via the ConnectIQ app that the fields you mentioned are strings. In my case, the fields refer to a number, maybe that is still decisive
